Question 71731
What is the area of a triangle with a base of 3.34 centimeters and a height of 7.23 cent .Round to the nearest tenth.
The formula for the are of a triangle is {{{highlight(A=(1/2)b*h)}}}, where A=area, b=base, and h=height.
b=3.34cm and h=7.23cm
{{{A=(1/2)(3.34cm)(7.23cm)}}}
{{{A=12.0741cm^2}}}
{{{highlight(A=12.1cm^2)}}}
What is the volume of a rectangular solid with dimensions of 3.6 cm, 2.7 cm and 11.4 cm. Round to the nearest hundredth.
The formula for the volume of a rectangular solid is {{{highlight(V=LWH)}}}, where V=volume, L=length, W=width, and H=height.
It doesn't matter which you pick for length, width or height because they're being multiplied and order isn't important for that.
{{{V=(3.6cm)(2.7cm)(11.4cm)}}}
{{{V=110.808cm^3}}}
{{{highlight(V=110.81cm^3)}}}
Happy Calculating!!!!
